Heparin was modified at carboxyl groups by reaction with several pharmacologically important amino-containing compounds in aqueous medium in the presence of 1-ethyl-3-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]carbodiimide. In dependence on the nature of the amine and the ratio of reagents, conjugates containing 36-100% amide and 0-25% isoureidocarbonyl groups were synthesized. Isoureidoarylamide groups are present, along with amide moieties, in the products of heparin modification by hydroxyl-containing aromatic amines. The conjugate of heparin with p-aminobenzoic acid contained oligomeric arylamide.

Gelation and gel properties are crucial to surimi-based seafood products, and many factors significantly influence surimi gel quality. Although physical and chemical modifications can improve surimi gel performance, challenges such as high cost, difficulties in industrialization and environmental pollution pose significant barriers to their practicality. Natural additives offer a promising alternative by reinforcing and improving the characteristics of surimi gel through mechanisms such as protein conformational transformation, protein denaturation, and altered chemical forces.

The weak-link approach (WLA) to organometallic complexes offers a powerful method to create allosteric shape-shifting coordination complexes. However, chemically tuning the metal-ligand interactions entails challenging syntheses. This study explores the influence of ring strain on the lability of the platinum-sulfur interaction within WLA complexes, providing a simpler alternative to chemical modifications.

Ubiquitin fold modifier 1 (UFM1) is a newly identified post-translational modifier that is involved in the UFMylation process. Similar to ubiquitination, UFMylation enables the conjugation of UFM1 to specific target proteins, thus altering their stability, activity, or localization. UFM1 chains have the potential to undergo cleavage from their associated proteins via UFM1-specific proteases, thus highlighting a reversible feature of UFMylation.
